Neutral On N. C. Politics
Man Of Leisure And At Present Jobless,
Kay Kyser Is Very Happy In Chapel Hill
By Walt Dear
A man of leisure, 'temporarily
out of a job," claims to be neutral
when it comes to politics.
This particular individual hap
pens to be Kay Kyser and as far
as those rumors about him and
the governor's job or a seat in
the Legislature, Kay has only one
comment : "Since I haven't
thought about going kito politics,
I never have to think about stay
ing out.' , -'
The former porfessor of the
Kollege of Musical Knowledge
and jnow a man happily settled
with his family a few doors down
from President Gray's home, Kay
added a cautionary note to this
statement," Of course, a man;

hours of his life.
Political prognosticated around
the state have been eyeing the
one time cheerleader as an ideal
candidate to replace Governor
Seott. ' -

Attend G ames ;
Agreement
The five Negro law students said yesterday that they pan
to attend football games and indicated that they had not said
they would follow Chancellor House's suggestion that they
observe segregation at Kenan Stadium. ,
"The impression conveying the idea that we made a deal
with the Chancellor whereby he would give us the tickets and
we wouldn't attend the games was erroneous," J. Kenneth
Lee, asserted, speaking for the five students.
Lee was referring to remarks-
in a letter to the students signed
by the Chancellor when he issued !
passbooks for the games last Fri
day. House said, We are follow
ing your suggestion that we give
you a student athletic passbook
and trust to your good judgment
. . . that the University adminis
tration and the Trustees respon
sible for such matters believe it
wise to observe for the present,
the custom of segregation at
North Carolina intercollegiate
athletic games."
Another student, Harvey Beech,
commented, "It was a mere mock
ery to give us the passbooks and
not expect us to attend the
games." '
Chancellor House left for Ashe
ville yesterday morning to attend
the annual meeting of the North
Carolina Educational Association
and was hot available for com
ment. The five students said they may
or may not attend the games,
stating that it was on an individ
ual basis whether one went or
not. "We will continue to cooper-!
ate with the -University on any
thing that is reasonable and hon
orable," they said.
' The University reversed its
policy last Friday when Chancel
lor House gave the passbooks to
the students. Previously, the ad
ministration had contended that
the Athletic Association was not
an

cosmopolitan thinking." The TV
job was the hardest medium he
has ever worked in. Chiefs com
plaint about the coaxial cable
work was the "strenuous detail"
a performer or director of a show
has to go into to produce the de
sired results. . "I haven't heard
any performer say 'Hard work
but it's worth it. But I won't say
that it won't get to be that way,"
he commented.
A graduate in 1927, Kay was
ready for Broadway as soon as he
received his diploma. But the
folks on the Great White Way
weren't ready for him, he points
out. "Ten years later I finally
made it," he added. Besides his
work with his orchestra on radio
shows in the past,- Kay found time
to carry the message of the State
health program to North Caro
linians a few yearsago. Now that
he's permanently stationed here
he's been able to offer valuable
suggestions to cheerleaders and
University club officials on how
to make V rally clu-lc.

Yets, Athletes
Lose Facilities
Rainy weather athletes vand
veterans are out of a home for the
time being.
The Tin Can and the Veterans
Club have been taken over as
storage rooms for the medical
equipment to be used in the be
lated medical and - dental centers
being completed here. The metal
materials range from laboratory
tables to pencil sharpeners and
the manufacturers stated that
either the medical schools "take
the stuff or . leave it." Forced t
receive the goods, and with no
other place to store it, the Uni
versity decided as a last result
to utilize the Veterans Club and
Tin Can. Quonset huts in Carr
boro are being used and also the
warehouses at Camp Butner.
T. H. Evans, Director of Ac
counting, said that shipments will
be coming in until January 1. A
million and a auarter dollar'
j worth will be here by then; how
ever the medical buildings still
I won't be able to hold the equip
